More than 7,300 Special Operations troops are working around the world, many of them conducting shadow wars against terrorists in Yemen, Libya, Somalia and other hot spots.

A USA military report on that incident publicized by the Pentagon last month without being fully released found that multiple individual and institutional failures left the US troops vulnerable to the ambush. Military leaders have acknowledged that troops in the country are at increased risk as the United States attempts to bolster the capabilities of local forces meant to lead the fight against militants.

The recent attack in Somalia comes as a challenging time for Special Operations Forces on the African continent. With the AU poised to downsize its force, there is now an global push to prepare Somalia's inexperienced military to lead the battle against militants.

The death is the first USA combat death in Africa since an ambush a year ago by ISIS-aligned fighters in Niger left four US soldiers dead and prompted questions over whether American troops in the region had proper support.

"The population in the region had historically supported the government, and the Somali forces had prepared for this mission by coordinating heavily with and securing the support of local authorities ahead of time", U.S. Africa Command said.
